[Solution] The tongue-cleaning tool (1) is equipped with a handle (2), a connecting part (3) that extends from the handle (2), and a head (4) provided on the tip of the connecting part (3). The head (4) comprises a base (41) that extends from the connecting part (3) and a tongue plaque-removing part (42) formed on the upper surface of the base (41). The Shore A hardness of the tongue plaque-removing part (42) is 10 - 35. The connecting part (3) has an elasticity such that when the handle (2) is fixed and a load of 1 N is applied in a direction perpendicular to the tongue plaque-removing part (42), the range of motion of the tongue plaque-removing part (42) is 5 - 10 mm.</p> |
